A heavy, slanted sans with wide, compact letterforms and rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are thick and consistent, with subtly softened corners that keep the shapes friendly despite the mass. Counters are relatively small and enclosed, producing strong black density and a tight internal rhythm. The italic construction is more of an oblique lean than a calligraphic cursive, with many terminals cut on angles and several forms showing sheared, wedge-like joins. Uppercase and lowercase share a robust, forward-driving stance, and the numerals match the same chunky, streamlined build.
Best suited for headlines, display typography, and short bursts of text where a bold, forward-leaning voice is desired. It works well in sports and performance-themed branding, posters, packaging callouts, and event graphics where strong presence and quick readability matter more than long-form comfort.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a sporty, action-forward feel. Its dense silhouette and aggressive slant read as confident and promotional, suited to messaging that wants immediate impact and momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a streamlined, italicized sans structure. It emphasizes speed and power through wide proportions, tight counters, and angular cuts while retaining approachability via rounded curves.
The rounded bowls (notably in O/o, 8/9) contrast with sharp diagonal cuts in letters like A, K, M, N, V, W, and Z, creating a distinctive mix of soft curves and hard edges. The heavy weight and tight counters suggest it will perform best at larger sizes where interior spaces remain clear.
